This
page will offer the practical application of Motion Menus in Reel
DVD 2.5. It is highly recommended that you read The
Basics before trying this tutorial.

Download
the files zipped below to follow along. The video has been cut dramatically
to reduce download time, but the principals will still apply. Audio
is in a separate file, as it is not really necessary for this tutorial.

1.Unzip
the files to an easily accessible folder on your computer.2.Open
Reel DVD with a new project, if its not starting with a new one already.3.Drag
the file, TutorialMotionMenu.m2v, from the explorer window onto the storyboard
area. The video bar in the track window will show content.

4.Drag
the Overlay.psd file from the explorer window and drop it on top of the
video file. The track window will now show SP1 (subpicture stream one)
as having content as well. Notice how a "Buttons" track appears
along with the Sp 1 track. This will show content as soon as we select
those "hotspots" for the menu overlay.

- At this time the preview window should also show the .psd file overlayed
on the video

5.If
you downloaded the audio zip file. You may now drag the ac3 file on top
of the video file as well. The audio bar in the track window will now show
content. (For ease in downloading, I included the ac3 version of the
audio. This was obviously converted to .ac3 from .wav by Reel.)
